Yeah saw that, thought that it might be a custom one to run the dual boot. Would I just take dalingrin's froyo 1100 oc'ed kernel and rename his uImage to uFImg and replace it?

Okay that makes sense I read op post wrong I thought you had to flash both one went to one partition and one to the other, didn't get much sleep last night must not be thinking straight. I tried pushing the gapps into honeycomb with adb and when I rebooted to honeycomb afterwards it would alternate between the android boot screen and the touch here to began screen. I re flashed hc and it fixed but I'm back to square one with no gapps. Anyone know how to install the google apps on this honeycomb? I don't think the modified cm gapps zip will work cause it would just flash to my froyo partition.
I got it! I just re-installed stock Nookie Froyo and then flashed the dual boot files on top of it. Hope this helps someone.
No need to wipe. As this is not touching your original setup. It's creating a new partition that you will be flashing your new ROMs to.
HC Zip with Gapps for Second Partition
Okay I integrated pjree's Modified CM Gapps into rookie1's Flashable dual boot Honeycomb Preview v04 and now have gmail and market. Now to work on root and over clocked kernel. Thanks rookie1 and pjree. Also anyone know how to get rid of the red error border that thing is annoying.

Just flash rookie1's prep-dualboot-0.1.zip and then this.

Going into settings > applications > development and unchecking the one to show Strict Mode should do it.
If I use this and install HC can I then boot into HC and run the market install script found on this site? The script work great for the sd card image. It would be awesome if it worked for this to
Also it doesn't say in the op how to boot into the second rom you install. Do I hold the n button while booting or what?

Having problems with the dual boot. The Froyo partition gets the sleep of death issue. Running the 1.1overclock on it. Any ideas on a fix?

Not yet played with CM7. But I just uploaded another flashable zip (see 1st post update) which copies your Eclair to dual boot partition. After that you should be able to flash CM7 to eMMC. With that setup, default boot will go to CM7. Hold 'n' will boot to Eclair.
One thing be warned though, I'm not sure CM7 ROM overwrites u-boot.bin. If it is, you will lose dual boot capability.
I remember seeing somewhere all user compiled kernel got this problem. Are you sure this is because of dual boot? Do you have this issue with default kernel from Nookie Froyo?
If I am not mistaken, the sleep of death is a rom issue with froyo. people seems to get around it by disabling backgroud and auto sync. But you have to enable it when going into market, so it's a little hassle.
I don't think that wise... CM7 uses a different format (ext4) than the others and I don't think it will work in this dual-boot environment.
Hi,
Any plans of contributing to the community yourself? I mean where are the u-boot sources that you modified for dual boot?

When I flash prep-dualboot I get an error that says installation aborted. It says there is an error with the dual-boot file. Then is says (status 0). I'm using IOmonsters bootable cwm sdcard image and running froyo on the emmc. What went wrong? I tried re downloading the prep file but got the same result.

33I've created a few flashable zip files to ease the eMMC dual boot setup. You can flash them using Clock Work Recovery.
Warning: Only specially packaged flashable dual boot ROMs like the ones I packaged below will flash to dual boot partition. Other flashable zips will overwrite your default boot.
Seems there is a problem flashing the zips from CWM on SD. See this post for a workaround, or use CWM on eMMC.
Just a word on booting into recovery. With the dual boot u-boot.bin, I have changed the button combo to VOL UP + VOL DOWN for recovery. So if you want to go to recovery, remember this is the key combo you need to hit. Not Power + n.
1. Prepare dual boot - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20480343/prep-dualboot-0.1.zip
Flash this zip file will setup the dual boot partitions. If your NC is already setup using my previous dual boot script, there is no need to flash this again.
Note 1 - This does a resize of your /media partition. You data on /media should be intact. If you want to be safe, backup your /media before flashing.
Note 2 - /media partition will be resized to about 3.9 GB. If your existing data on /media is more that 3.9GB, you won't be able to flash this.
2. Remove dual boot - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20480343/remove-dualboot-0.1.zip
If you want to revert to stock, simply flash this file.
3. Dual boot ROMs
Now the dual boot ROMs. These will be flashed to the dual boot partitions (partition 9 and 10) on eMMC. Hold 'n' button while powering up to boot into dual boot ROM.
My modified u-boot.bin based on B&N 1.2 source - Seems previous version is having compatibility issues with 2.6.32 kernel. This is updated base on B&N 1.2 source. Flash using CWM. It only overwrites the u-boot.bin on boot partition. Boot message should show "(multi)U-Boot v0.3 loading..." after flashing this zip.

Flashable zip to move your stock Eclair to dual boot partition v02 - This is not really a ROM strictly speaking. To avoid infringing B&N IP, no file from stock ROM is included in this zip. Scripts in this zip simply copies your stock ROM partitions and make the necessary adjustment to ramdisk. After flashing this, you will have an identical ROM setup on your dual boot partition. You are free to do whatever to your default ROM. For example, you can flash other ROMs to overwrite your default ROM. You will still be able to boot into stock eclair by holding 'n' button. Only thing to note is if the other ROMs you flash overwrites u-boot.bin, you will lose the dual boot capability.
Flashable dual boot CM7 nightly (cm_encore_full-22)
Note 1 - You can flash this using CWM 3.0.0.5. Newer version of CWM not required.
Note 2 - This will convert secondary /system and /data partitions to ext4. They will not be compatible with other dual boot ROMs any more. You need to flash remove-dualboot-0.1.zip, then prep-dualboot-0.1.zip, before flashing other dual boot ROMs.
Note 3 - This will wipe your dualboot data partition.

cm7 dev team for porting CM7 to NC
other xda developers who have contributed to NC community.5Quick and dirty guide to create your own CM7 nightly dualboot
<This is tested on nightly 22>
Assuming you are on a linux box,
1. uncompress cm7-dual-boot-flashable-nightly-3.zip to a directory. let's call it cm7-work.
2. replace system directory and kernel, ramdisk.img from the latest nightly.
3. run unpacker.sh (attached in this post) in cm7-work. it will unpack ramdisk.img into a new directory called ramdisk-src
4. go into ramdisk-src to make these 2 changes
- in init.rc, comment out the line 'mkdir /cache 0771 system cache'. this is because we need to create a symlink later on /cache. if the directory is there, create symlink will fail.
- in init.encore.rc, find
then addCode:# create mountpoints mkdir /mnt/emmc 0000 system system symlink /mnt/emmc /emmc
below.Code:mkdir /mnt/cache 0771 system cache
find
Code:# mount partitions mount vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /rom sync noatime nodiratime uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=117,dmask=007 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system wait ro barrier=1 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6 /data wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /cache wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1
replace by
Code:# mount partitions mount vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /rom sync noatime nodiratime uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=117,dmask=007 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system wait ro barrier=1 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 /data wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1 mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 /mnt/cache wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1 chmod 0771 /mnt/cache mkdir /mnt/cache/cm7 chown system cache /mnt/cache/cm7 chmod 0771 /mnt/cache/cm7 symlink /mnt/cache/cm7 /cache
5. run packer.sh (attached in this post) in cm7-work. it will pack and replace ramdisk.img. you will need mkimage here. if you are on Ubuntu, install package uboot-mkimage
6. delete cm7-work/ramdisk-src directory if ramdisk.img is created successfully.
7. in cm7-work directory, run 'zip -9r cm7-nightly.zip *' to create the flashable zip file. copy cm7-nightly.zip to your sd card and flash.
optional step
the updater script (META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script) formats the dualboot data partition. If you want to keep your data partition, remove the line 'format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p10");' from this file before step 7.4CM7-Encore-BR1-20110404-2321-DUALBOOT.zip
OK, I thought the post was saying that I needed to have a CM7 already loaded on the dual boot partition to load the updated RC4 version. In any case I think I'll wait for your updated version. Thanks for the help!
Oops. I meant to say for CM7 or "new" to dual-boot only. It probably won't work if you already had HC or Froyo on the 2nd partition.
Anyway, here's the latest 04/04/2011 update from Mad-Murdock that's been Dual-Boot-inized.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17305480/CM7-Encore-BR1-20110404-2321-DUALBOOT.zip
Previous CM7 on dual boot users:
1. Download and put on SDCard
2. Reboot into Clockwork Recovery (version 3.0.1.0+)
3. Flash downloaded zip file.
4. Reboot holding "N"
5. Check the Tablet Tweaks thread for more info.
New dual-boot users:
1. Check OP for info and warnings. Then flash prep-dualboot file first.
2. Follow steps above for Previous CM7 on dual boot users.
File contains 04/04/2011 CM7 Nightly Build with Mad-Murdock's Tablet Tweaks (almost bug-free), latest CM7 Google Apps, and Darlingin's 1100Mhz overclock kernel pre-installed.
This does not touch your stock eclair boot and does not wipe your data partition.3
Looks like this is a problem with the CWM SD image. /sbin/parted is not executable in that image. If you are familiar with command line, just adb shell into CWM, run 'chmod 755 /sbin/parted', then proceed to flash the zip. Note the change is only in memory. Every time after reboot into CWM, you have to run this command again. Or alternatively, use the CWM on eMMC via Rom Manager.
I will leave a message in the CWM SD thread to let thecubed know.
